A video showing Jeff Bezos, his fiancée Lauren Sánchez, and Leonardo DiCaprio at the LA County Museum of Art’s gala hasn’t quite won over social media fans.
We’d be lying if we said we wouldn’t act similarly—this is Leonardo DiCaprio.
At the 10th Annual Los Angeles County Museum of Art’s (LACMA) Art and Film Gala Presented by Gucci in 2021, Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos regrettably stopped to speak with DiCaprio. Social media is currently circulating footage of this incident.
On November 7, 2021, the actor from Killers of the Flower Moon happened to run into the creator of Amazon and his then-girlfriend, who is now engaged.
Since then, the video has gone viral on sites like X. Sánchez appears so close to DiCaprio in the video that it appears as though she is half-hugging him. She gazes intently at the actor’s face, her smile unwavering.
Bezos is across from her, but he seems absent as DiCaprio and Sánchez talk. After that, the actor appears to be leaving the conversation by waving his finger, which is naturally followed by Sánchez walking a step further.
People quickly flocked to the post with their opinions, and years later, they were still discussing it.
Yesterday, June 10, the Historic Vids X account reposted the video with the comment, “When Leonardo Dicaprio met Jeff Bezos and his girlfriend at the Art Gala in LA.”
A member on X commented, saying, “I thought he wanted nothing to do with girls over 26.”
Someone else said, “Get a girl that looks at you like Bezos’s girl looks at Leo.”
“Who else noticed how she was staring at Leonardo the whole time?” asked a third person.
A fourth person laughed: “Find someone who looks at you the way Jeff Bezos’ girlfriend looks at Leonardo DiCaprio.”
Fortunately for Bezos, he didn’t really have too much to worry about in the end, as he and Sánchez have since gotten engaged. Of course, not even being one of the richest men in the world could convince his girlfriend at the moment to tear her eyes away from the actor.
The couple announced their engagement in May 2023. Given the lack of announcements about a wedding date, it’s possible that they secretly tied the knot, a common practice among celebrities today. Regardless, because Sánchez is older than 25, there’s not really a reason to rush.
